Cardenas left the series in Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie due to wanting to open his own martial arts dojo. His last in universe appearance was the very first episode of Power Rangers Turbo , " Shift Into Turbo -part I" with it even being mentioned that he planned to open a dojo.
After leaving the show, he established a dojo in Los Angeles where he taught martial arts as he planned. As with co-star Karan Ashley , Steve was also contacted to reprise the role of Rocky for Power Rangers Super Megaforce but turned it down due to being offered low pay.
The low pay was because it would have been a very minor appearance. He did, however, reprise his role in the Super Ninja Steel episode Dimensions in Danger for the 25th anniversary. RangerWiki Explore.
Super Sentai. Villains Mecha Giant Robo 0. DG: Do you find that your Ranger cred helps or hinders when it comes to your students? Do you ever have students coming to study under you for the wrong reasons, and how do you handle a situation like that? Texas is, of course, a huge state, but how tightly knit is the martial arts community there? Enough that you guys might have happened upon one another at some point?
Had any of you met before or were you complete strangers? SC: Complete strangers. There were so many people, over four-thousand, at that audition. Anything in particular you can remember offhand? It made it fun, more interesting on set. DG: How much involvement did you have in the development of your character?
Were you and your castmates able to collaborate at all or was it really locked down for the writers only? We just tried to take what the script gave us. I did have an acting coach that came to the set and helped me go through things. He helped me to develop the character based on what lines they were giving me. Not unintelligent, just a little out of it, a little less self-aware than the others.
Was this intentional, and which version of Rocky do you officially endorse? I guess at first, the Red Ranger was a little more cookie cutter, he was a little bit more of a straight arrow.
DG: There are conflicting reports surrounding your departure from the series. SC: There was no injury. That was the way they came up with to write me out. It really just came down to being treated fairly. If so, how? Just conflicting personalities or were there any specific issues or incidents, and was it a factor in your decision to leave the series?
SC: No, no. There were people I hung out with more than others, but we worked together so closely all the time, we worked twelve hours at a time, at the end of the day we usually just really wanted to go home.
When I was on the show, I actually ended up hanging out more with the crew. They were just hardworking, good people and a lot of fun to be around. But if you had stayed around, they might not have felt that way. One ranger leaving here and there had become a staple of Power Rangers by then. Were you already feeling the urge to move on or did you feel like Rocky still had some mileage left to him? SC: Sure, the character had mileage left, but I already knew we would all be leaving after that year.
DG: If it were up to you, how would you have liked to have seen Rocky develop as a character? What aspects of the character did you gravitate toward, and is it because they are like you or unlike you?
